Chapter 23

In the dark space, a figure passed by very quickly.

When he came to a cave inlaid with glowstone, the figure stopped and looked at the entrance of the cave in front of him. He saw that the light belonging to the glowstone at the entrance was mixed with a touch of aura, and the handsome and cold face of the man was barely noticeable. The land was a little more surprised, and then returned to caution.

"Woooo~~"

A black-haired, leopard-like monster beside the man purred, as if urging him to hurry in.

Ning Zhezhou looked down at the ghostly leopard who was urging around him. In this cold and dark space, the ghostly leopard was almost integrated with the surrounding environment. Only those eyes that glowed in the dark contained the power from the ghost. , teach people to know that it is different from the monsters in this world, and it seems that if you are not careful, it will pull people into the underworld.

He reached out and patted the Nether Leopard's head, and said slowly, "No hurry."

Although the Nether Leopard was impatient, but seeing that he was cautious, he could only goug out his four hooves on the spot and endure.

Ning Zhezhou probed for a while, and after confirming that there was no danger in the cave, he brought the Nether Leopard in.

The karst cave is extremely deep, up to several tens of meters high. The top of the mountain wall is inlaid with glowing fluorite. The cold and blue light illuminates the entire karst cave. on, as if asleep.

Seeing such a behemoth suddenly, Ning Zhezhou looked slightly stiff and subconsciously alerted. Fortunately, he could feel that there was no life on the beast. Even so, the powerful aura of the high-level monsters that lingered on the body of this monster made people feel terrified and did not dare to be in the same space with it.

There is still such a terrible aura after death, which shows how powerful it was in life.

This is the corpse of a king-level monster that has been cultivated to at least transform into shape, equivalent to a practitioner above the Yuanhuang realm.

Although don't know how old it was, its corpse was well preserved. The roots of its fur were like burrs, and it didn't show any signs of decay. The demon bones condensed all its cultivation and was extremely hard.

The Nether Leopard made a whimpering urging sound again, looking at the corpse of the fierce beast with extremely eager eyes, adding a bit of fear.

Ning Zhezhou reassured: "No hurry, it's yours."

After all, he stepped forward and took away the body of the fierce beast. The beast is a treasure. Even after death, it is still not to be underestimated, especially this high-level monster that has already transformed.

When he just put it in the storage bag, Ning Zhezhou quickly turned around, with the sword in front, and shouted, "Who?"

The ghost leopard reacted very quickly, dormant in the darkness like a ghostly shadow, the figure disappeared, but it seemed to be everywhere, locking the intruder outside the cave.

A figure appeared in front of the cave.

The visitor was a handsome man wearing a light blue brocade robe, with trimmed eyebrows and handsome eyes, a jade crown with hair tied on his forehead, a jade jade ornament on his forehead, and a jade dimple hanging from his waist, with an extraordinary bearing. His expression was indifferent, his eyes looking at Ning Zhezhou were a bit scrutinized and indifferent, with the breath of a long-time high-ranking person, not a character that can be cultivated in a small place.

Ning Zhezhou's eyes narrowed, and he instantly understood that this person was not a practitioner from Dongling Kingdom.

He is quite familiar with the younger generation of practitioners in Dongling Country, but he has never seen this person. In addition, after entering Lintai Hunting Valley, several practitioners from Dongling Country were killed, and he has noticed that this time Lintai Hunting Valley is open, and many foreign practitioners are mixed in.

These foreign cultivators have a high level of cultivation. don’t know what the purpose is. They came to Lintai Hunting Valley for experience or treasure hunting. They even looked down on the resources of Lintai Hunting Valley. People suspect that they are just here to kill people for fun.

As a disciple of the royal family of Dongling Country, Ning Zhezhou naturally has the responsibility to protect the practitioners of Dongling Country. He happened to encounter a conflict between several foreign practitioners and practitioners of Dongling Country. When he was born, everyone rushed here, so that he didn't have time to take action and asked the purpose of these foreign cultivators.

The visitor looked at it for a moment, and said in a very determined tone: "Ning Zhezhou of the Ning family in Dongling."

Ning Zhezhou looked at him calmly and asked, "Who is the senior?"

"Sacred Martial Hall, Yin Xingheng."

Ning Zhezhou's expression moved slightly, and his heart was filled with turbulent waves, and some clues appeared on his face.

Yin Xingheng showed a faint smile on his face and said, "I believe you should have heard of the name of the Holy Martial Hall. This time, I am waiting for the son of the Holy Martial Artist to come to Dongling to find the Son of Heaven's Chosen."

Ning Zhezhou is not stupid, he immediately understood what he meant and said, "I am the candidate for the chosen son this time?"

"Exactly."

Ning Zhezhou looked at him uncertainly and remained silent for a long time.

The wind blew across the ground, making a low-pitched moan, hovering beside his ears.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

Ning Yuzhou slowly opened his eyes, the pain was overwhelming with his sobriety, making him clearly feel the pain that the bones in his body were almost crushed. However, in addition to pain, there is another unfamiliar experience.

He could finally feel the primordial aura that was everywhere in the air.

Seeing that he was awake, Qianhun finally breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly took out a few more spiritual pills to feed him, among which was the bone-shaping pill.

Falling from a height of tens of thousands of feet, Ning Yuzhou, as a mortal who has no cultivation base, breaks a bone is light, but if he is serious, he will die.

Ning Yuzhou endured the pain like ten thousand ants devouring bones when the bones were growing and remodeling, and asked hoarsely, "Have you seen A'ao?"

Dive hunting for a while, without saying a word.

Ning Yuzhou had a bad premonition in his heart, and his voice became a little harsh, "Where's Ah Nuo?"

Qianhun glanced at him and said with difficulty, "Madam... is dead."

"Impossible!" Ning Yuzhou said, but the next moment, he spurted a mouthful of blood, and his pale face was even more dead.

Qian Shou looked at him nervously, and hurriedly fed him a few more spiritual pills, after deliberation, he said, "Your Highness, this subordinate did not lie to you, when Your Highness found you, you still had some breath, but Madam was too seriously injured. Falling from above, my body can't bear it anymore, it's... no life."

Having said that, Qianhun couldn't bear to look at his expression.

Ning Yuzhou lay on the ground, staring blankly at the dark dome above.

Qian Shou looked at him worriedly. After they entered the gate of light a few days ago, they never imagined that the teleportation formation behind the gate of light turned out to be a random teleportation formation that dispersed everyone. They circled around the labyrinth for a long time and couldn't get out. Then, for some reason, the labyrinth suddenly collapsed, and a huge dark space appeared below, and all of them fell from the labyrinth.

Fortunately, they are all cultivators. Although they fell from a height of tens of thousands of meters, and although they were injured in some embarrassment, they did not worry about their lives.

After the hidden scale guards gathered, they were busy following the contract with Ning Yuzhou to find them.

As for Wen Qiao, the new lady, Stalker has only been in contact with her for half a month, and the impression is of a sick and cold little girl who looks weak and needs someone to protect her. Although he didn't know why the master brought a person who had no fighting power and needed protection into the Lintai Hunting Valley, he could see that the master attached great importance to her, and even did not hesitate to recuperate her body, formulate a training plan for her, and do everything for her. Because all revolved around her, and even entered Lintai Hunting Valley this time, it was also for her.

When Qianhun saw the master being so devoted to a person, he knew that the master liked this lady who had been engaged since childhood.

But the lady died.

After an unknown amount of time, Ning Yuzhou said hoarsely, "Where's her body?"

Qianhun returned to his senses and hurriedly replied, "I was taken away by a monster that looked like a rabbit."

Ning Yuzhou turned his head to look at him, the look of those eyes was light, but it made Qianhun's back chill, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "This subordinate is incompetent, I don't know where that monster came from, it The speed is extremely fast and the strength is incredible, when the subordinates rescue you, drag the body of the lady away, and the subordinates have sent other hidden scale guards to find them."

Ning Yuzhou didn't say anything, he was still lying on the ground, his clothes were tattered and stained with blood, both his and Wenqiao's.

Qianshou guarded him, and when he saw that he did not speak, he did not dare to speak rashly.

The surrounding is very quiet, only the low wind sounded, sobbing like weeping, and there was a faint murmur of running water in the distance.

This is an underground space with a huge space, not only underground rivers, but also many karst caves, among which there are some monsters that inhabit this place, as well as rare spirit grasses, which are of high grade and are rarely seen outside.

This is obviously below the cave mansion. Looking at its environment, Qianhun guessed that this is where the cave mansion owner usually works.

It can also be guessed that the owner of the cave should be a demon cultivator, and the labyrinth above is where the demon cultivator uses to deceive the world. This is the real cave house of the demon cultivator. As for why this cave mansion was suddenly born and caused such a big momentum, because there is not much information collected at this stage, it is impossible to analyze.

Just when the subterranean hunter was analyzing this underground space, he suddenly felt the fluctuation of the spiritual energy of the heavens and the earth, rushing here frantically.

He turned his head in shock and looked at the immobile man lying on the ground.

I don't know when, Ning Yuzhou closed his eyes and let the spiritual energy of heaven and earth pour into him frantically, and the aura on his body was also changing.

With a bang, it was like breaking some kind of confinement, and Ning Yuzhou changed from a mortal who couldn't cultivate to a practitioner who entered the Primordial Realm.

Not long after, Ning Yuzhou opened his eyes and sat up slowly.

Although the injury was very serious, at the moment of becoming a cultivator, the heaven and earth spirit energy changed his flesh and bones, nourished the injured internal organs and shattered bones, and the wounds on his body healed at a fast speed.

Qianhun looked at him in shock, "His Royal Highness..."

Ning Yuzhou said lightly: "The confinement in my body has been broken, and I can practice."

When he said this, the clouds were light and clear, as if it was a normal thing, and he was not ecstatic about it at all.

"How could that be?" Silent Hunter didn't know whether the situation was good or bad, and worried, "It doesn't mean that you and the rear of the crown can break the ban..."

There is still a year left, why was the ban broken ahead of schedule? Is it because of the serious injury? Or is there something in this cave that can break the ban?

"No." Ning Yuzhou said softly, with a hand touching his heart, with a complicated expression, "It's Ah Yu's blood."

Hidden Hunter snorted and looked at him for unknown reasons, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.
